Reaching New Heights

• Everyone wants to be successful in their personal health and fitness. What Northstars come to learn is that definition of success becomes much more than just being fit. They are better equipping your mind and body for all areas of life, including having a positive impact on those around them.  However, that success doesn’t come easy. It takes commitment, consistency, and effort over a long period of time. Here are three key habitual behaviors that every successful person develops:

  “If it were easy, everyone would do it.” Success is never a straight line, and that’s why successful people embrace obstacles that come their way.  When things don’t go to plan, they look inward to identify what can be improved, and they always keep moving forward. That’s also why we address positives and negatives in our goal review system, and identify obstacles that may arise while we strive for our goals.  It’s also important to look forward and realign on the focus for the coming period, because as you know, life always throws curveballs.  Even if we’ve had a setback, it’s essential to look at negative results and experiences as learning opportunities rather than letting them weigh us down.

• “Be where your feet are”. Successful people keep their commitments and stay consistent through discipline. Inconsistent schedules have been proven to correlate directly with physical and psychological distress, poor sleep quality, and unhappiness. By keeping a consistent schedule, your day will slow down and you will feel more in control of your life, as opposed to being controlled by everything around you. Instead of thinking of your workouts as an interruption in your day, think of it as “me time”. You’re taking action to better your mental and physical health, so you can block out the outside noise and be in the moment!
• “Generational Wealth through Generational Health”. Successful people give of themselves to their spouses, children, grandchildren, friends, and coworkers an example to strive for. Many people who have lost their way don’t even know where to start to get back on track. Northstars recognize that and reach out to lend a helping hand and bridge the gap. However, they also realize that they can’t help others if they don’t first help themselves. By prioritizing their physical and mental health, they are able to continue as that example for their community and provide for others when needed.
